uTorrent remains the most popular desktop torrenting app by a wide margin, and a new feature is on the way that will help cement its title as the undisputed king. Now live in uTorrent’s alpha build is drag-and-drop support for the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 — as well as Android phones and tablets.

The addition of drag-and-drop makes it even easier to transfer all the 100% legit content you’ve downloaded from sites like ClearBits or uTorrent apps like Khan Academy to your mobile devices and consoles. As long as your target device natively supports the type of file you drop, there’s nothing more to do except start enjoying your new videos or songs. If it doesn’t know what to do, however, uTorrent won’t be able to help you.

You’ll need to grab the paid version of BitTorrent — which was only recently announced and will be adding a built-in file convertor in a future update. Features in the mainline BitTorrent client typically arrive after they pass through alpha and beta testing in uTorrent, so it could be a while before this functionality is made available.

If you’re looking for a one-app solution right now, the paid version of Vuze already offers drag-and-drop transfers and conversions. Vuze is the second most popular torrent client around, with an estimated userbase around twice that of BitTorrent mainline. With uTorrent’s immense popularity, however, it’ll be interesting to see if BitTorrent mainline will surpass Vuze once the new media and device features arrive.
